Very good fit and finish. Mine came with two sets of grips, though I liked neither so I ordered a set to my liking. I also had my gunsmith do an action job to make it silky smooth. I am super picky when in comes to wheel guns, or any gun for that matter, but this is one worth having and adding to any collection.

Another awesome purchase choice from Buds!! It has a perfect balanced weight, shoots very accurately and overall is a beauty! Love the wood grips and it comes with three moon clips! Don't hesitate if your thinking of getting one. If it's available, jump on it. They are hard to find once they are out of stock. .357 or .38, both shoot very well out of this bad boy!

This Tool is impressive. A little heavy, though. Beautiful. Shot 100 rounds flawlessly. The .357 round is very powerful, .38 is easier in terms of recoil. One quarter turn, on sight, zeroed it right in. It is worth the price, at this time. Heirloom quality.

So I'll be singing to the choir when I say that this gun is an absolute jaw dropper of American engineering.

This is my first revolver and I was stuck between this gun and a 686+ in either 4" or 6".
I like the idea of having 7 shots but both barrel lengths were either too small or too large.

Then I stumble upon this beauty with 8 shots of 357 magnum and a perfect 5" barrel.
I cannot say how many hours I have fondled this firearm since receiving it and my trip to the range was one of the best I've ever had.

I actually hope more people can't afford this gun because I want to never see anyone else holding one. Don't buy it unless you want the one and only 357 in your collections.

Specifics:
-the gold bead sighting system is pretty good, way better than I thought it would be
-It comes with two sets of grips, the wooden ones are installed and I think they look better
-It is an N-frame, the largest Smith offers besides the X. However, it feels great even in small hands.
-Mine came with 3 moon clips where I thought it only came with 2, they are a little difficult to speedily use though.
-I haven't felt many revolver actions since this will be my ONE revolver but good god does the performance center make a nice double action trigger. I think this is one of the selling points of the Performance center.
-The finish is not as shiny as the picture. It is very matte which may disappoint some people. However, you can use polish to get it to a more 'nickel' finish.

This may be the best out-of-the box handgun I've ever experienced. The trigger is smooth, and light (its a revolver not a 1911). It's crisp, and easy to control. Out of the box it POI was exactly where I pointed it. 38's are just a little stouter than a .22. .357's are quite manageable. I'm beginning to convert to revolvers after 30+ years as a semi-auto (1911) guy. The revolver makes me a better shooter because you are so involved in the process from the time you pick the piece up to the point where it goes bang, and it goes bang every time - no fail - totally dependable The wood grips are presentation quality and fit my hands nicely. Bud's was a no hassle purchase. If your looking for a high quality revolver this is a great choice if .357 is your round of choice.
